Is this really the Change everyone wanted?
Government control of the internet (regardless of who/which party is in control of White House or Congress) is just wrong!
Are all of the people who voted for Obama really happy with this potential power-grab?
BTW, this source is internet/technology related

I find it terrifying that ANY government leadership could have power to pull the plug on the exchange of ideas we enjoy.
8 AnswersGovernment1 decade agoDoes anyone have a recipe for Texas Cream Pie?
There was a little cafe in my old hometown that made a pie called Texas Cream. It was sort of a custard-like filling w/ a layer of whipped cream on it then chocolate shavings (I think) to top it.
The owners were from Texas but moved to Colo. It was THE best pie ever.
Any help is appreciated.
2 AnswersCooking & Recipes1 decade agoWhy do we need deployed troops on U.S. soil?
Seriously? This is just crazy. I'm not a black-helicopter type but I'm not buying the whole "the troops are just there in case we need them."
This is the first time I agree with the ACLU.
15 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoRadio show talks w/ Kenyan Ambassador re: Obama. Is this a joke?
Was this some kind of weird skit?
The "ambassador" says Kenya is Obama's birthplace. And now "amabassador" will not take any more interviews?
6 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoIsn't it funny that dems are defending Obama's flip-flops?
I am becoming increasingly amused that Obama supporters are saying that Obama is just being smart by going back on campaign promises. When a repub changes they're a liar or stupid. But when Obama does it he's just adjusting to new events (ie tax increases, building infrastructure vs. stimulus check).
Let the kool-aid continue to flow!
19 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoNow the tax cuts are for 120k according Gov. Richardson?
250k, 200k, 150k, now 120k....seriously, where will this end? My guess is 90,000.
How many of you now fit into the Upper Class/ Rich people?
17 AnswersElections1 decade agoDems wants to cut military spending by 25%?
It's too bad that a lot of the military people have already voted. Perhaps if they'd known that Obama, Pelosi, Reid et al want to cut military spending (and don't you just know that some of that will be service people's salaries?) they might have cast their vote for McCain.
McCain promised in two debates to not decrease military spending and has pledged to help the military.
In addition, doesn't this seem just a tad scary considering that Biden PROMISED we'd have an international crisis?
24 AnswersElections1 decade agoObama is now trying to LOWER expectations?
So has he finally realized what the rest of us have known?
There is no way he'll be able to do all the things he's promising.
5 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoDoesn't it bother anyone that Obamamercial is only possible because he lied?
Doesn't anyone (besides repubs) care that Obama promised in writing and verbally that he would accept public financing and then lied by not doing so?
I'm sure the infomerical will be quite a lavish and well-produced spectacle but it's amazing that so few people care how he came about getting all the money to do this.
Even CNN thought this was hypocritical.
2 AnswersElections1 decade agoDon't you think Joe the Plumber got it right...Obama presidency will mean 'death to Israel'?
Story that came from the LA Times video they won't release:
"And yet the warm embrace Obama gave to Khalidi, and words like those at the professor's going-away party, have left some Palestinian American leaders believing that Obama is more receptive to their viewpoint than he is willing to say.
Their belief is not drawn from Obama's speeches or campaign literature, but from comments that some say Obama made in private and from his association with the Palestinian American community in his hometown of Chicago, including his presence at events where anger at Israeli and U.S. Middle East policy was freely expressed."
And even Sarkozy calls Obama's views on Iran "utterly immature"
12 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoRepubs: Will you watch ABC tonight (they are not carrying Obama Infomercial)?
Also, I'm writing to thank them for not carrying the 30-min. ad and to let them know that although I've never watched 'Pushing Daisies', I will watch it tonight.
17 AnswersElections1 decade agoWith all the millions that Obama is spending, shouldn't his poll numbers be higher?
It's taken Obama a long time to break 50% ... and why isn't the margin just a blowout considering that he lied about taking public financing and is outspending McCain by such a huge margin?
9 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoIf McCain had opted out of public financing would he be doing better?
What if McCain had lied too and opted out of public financing? He's got the support of Lady de Rothschild. If he had her and other wealthy repubs. financing campaign do you think he'd be much further ahead in the polls?
4 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoDoesn't the Palin wardrobe make sense when you consider?
She released two years worth of tax records. This woman and her family make nowhere near enough to buy 150,000 worth of clothing.
The campaign said she needed a makeover and supplied the money ....through the RNC!
The 150 amount also included outfitting her entire family.
I think this speaks volumes about her down-home values and where she is (hopefully) heading to D.C. They knew in order for her to present the kind of image needed to influence not only joe six-pack but the upper echelon of society as well, she needed new clothes.
Again, this was paid for by the RNC (so unless you're a contributor, it's not your business) and for those who say matched funds ...well, those are also contributors (you know, the little box on your tax return)
AND most importantly, these clothes are going to charity after the election.
15 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoBiden knows that Obama will be tested and response won't be right?
Not only has Biden said this but now Madeline Albright has agreed with that statement.
It's interesting that the dems are telling their base this is coming. If this were just a warning that any president will be tested they certainly would have said that, right?
No, they're saying an Obama presidency is inviting a crisis/event.
YouTube of CNN discussing Biden's remarks:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkq-CRrXTs8
Albright agrees w/ Biden:
http://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/albright_terror...
Again, this is specific to Obama...not just a new president.
9 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhy do dems continue to talk about Obama being 'tested'?
Biden, Powell and Albright are all agreeing that a vote for Obama means his presidency will be tested by an 'event'.
Why are they saying this and why vote for Obama if this is the case?
The YouTube is from CNN Lou Dobbs talking about Biden's remarks and the actual audio from the speech given at an Obama fundraiser.
11 AnswersElections1 decade agoIf dems know about this "event" that will occur in Jan. why are they voting Obama?
So, it's not only Biden who says there will be a test w/in 6 months of an Obama presidency but also Colin Powell.
Are you dems really sure you want Obama to be in charge when this happens?
Powell: "The problems will always be there, and there's going to be a crisis come along in the 21st or 22nd of January that we don't even know about right now."
3 AnswersElections1 decade agoDo dems believe Biden when he predicts a "test" for U.S. in 6 months?
Biden said that there will be a "test" within 6 months if Obama becomes president. Does this give anyone pause in voting for him?
What is Biden referring to when he says, Obama will need help to influence community because it won't be apparent???
6 AnswersElections1 decade agoIf Obama will lie about these 'little' things ... what's next?
He lied when he said he wouldn't run for president or even vp...then when he won the nomination he lied about taking public financing.
Besides his dubious associations (Wright, Rezko and Ayers) what will he lie about next?
This election is so important.... people have got to start asking themselves if Obama can really be trusted to be president of this country.
